I hope you got the most out of yesterday. Still six days to go before the end of National Dog Week. Make every day count. Make your parents be at your beck and call. Also, put to good use all the dog training tips I've been sharing with you: don't forget the adorable look on your faces and all should go as planned.

1. How many entries? One tongue per pet, that's it. I would really appreciate if you sent me names and your blog's url if you have one. It'll help out my secretary, not the one I fired last week, the new one.
2. How many winners of the five free giveaway? Five.
3. How will we decide on the five winners? I will post all entries on my blog after the "Show Us Your Tongue" contest is closed (at the end of National Dog Week, on Saturday September 24th). It'll be a collective effort made out of an enormous panel of impartial and professional pet judges.
4. Will I participate? I wish.
5. Will the chiweenie or the spotted siblings of mine? Nope! I'm partial to them and I may be tempted to favor them.
6. Will giant breeds be allowed? I didn't want to at first, but mom made me. Yes.
7. Are there any animals that will be excluded? Just the obvious cheaters, lizards, frogs and all reptiles with agile tongues.
8. A request: due to heavy spam traffic, if you remember to, have something easy for me to discern in your email title, like: pet photo contest, my tongue, your tongue, Tongues-R-Us, Twinkie you look marvelous today... anything you like.

Meanwhile, I want to share with you that I'm really excited about this contest. It was going to be a quickie, but based on the responses so far, it will get the attention it deserves. We already even have a baby calf competing!

A bit of trivia that suits our contest:

Featured in the new Guinness World Records 2011 book is Puggy, the dog with the longest tongue in the world. Puggy is a designer dog, a Pekingese. But do not fret, we're not doing a longest tongue contest we're just doing a Show Us Your Tongue Contest. Small tongues are eligible to win.

Puggy's showing us her tongue, yikes!

(it looks a bit like M's ex's tongue)

I would like to share a yöghund video with you to get your appetites going, in other words, to motivate you to start warming up those tongues! Do I need to remind you of the free giveaways? Okay, free yöghund boxes filled with delicious and nutritious (mom made me mention the second) frozen dog treats!

WHEW... Twinkie I was afraid I had missed your TONGUE Contest when I gotted "a little BEHIND" BUTT, I see I still have time. I will get up a post today or tomorrow.. claws.. I'm still a little behind.. hehehe I will give it a TWINKIE type Title so you can find it easily. AND I will only put ONE picture up. I pawmis.

Hi Twinkie! Gosh, what a fun contest! I think I know the picture I'm gonna use for my entry. I've used it before on another bloggie post so I hope that's okay. I don't think we'll have an entry for Brudder Ranger cuz he hardly ever sticks out his tongue. 'cept at me when mom and dad aren't looking. But that's okay. He says it's an old traditional rat terrier greeting which means, "I luv you very much, sister."

Woooos Twinkie! I will see if I can get Mom off of her butt and get me entered in this, but alas I have not seen much of here lately, and as fur doing any work fur me? I fear it is time to do something drastic....~husky kisses~-Kira The BeaWootiful
